I got Windows 10 to crash by playing a YouTube video and opening a .pdf file in Foxit reader at the same time!  Guess it's not been improved as much as they think.

Its 'more secure', because you can't use it. :P

[G+_Steve C]

It doesn't crash all the time like Windows 8 did but it's still a nuisance.

I would bet that the problem lies in flash or Foxit (my vote is Adobe Flash) . Let's put the blame where it's due.

Michael Kerr hasn't YouTube dropped flash?

I'll blame w10... you don't hear that in w7 or Xp.

 

Fox it is an optional pay software, could be that w10 has code to 'dis' on free or low cost software...

[G+_Eddie Foy]

Flash nor a plugin should crash the OS.

With Preview, why bother with Acrobat reader?  (now Acrobat proper I can understand)

[G+_Eddie Foy]

Ah.  I don't play windows much.  (Preview is a nice little basic  swiss army knife app, ain't it?)

I'm aware of what Foxit is and I still think that conclusions are being jumped to with little to no fact to support the supposition.

[G+_Black Merc]

Foxit is a great low resource PDF soft.

Downloaded from homepages reduces malware(the source). Many downloads OFF (not from) the source homepage will contain malware.

Fact I've ran Foxit on xp and w7 had no problems.?

My Windows 10 crashes if I leave it for 10 minutes. It must miss me!
